Over 60% of 4th and 8th grade students in the US today score below proficiency in reading (Nation’s Report Card). Unfortunately this statistic hasn’t changed much over the last 20 years and impacts a number of students, including those receiving Special Education services, English Language Learners, and those who have just fallen behind.

This week, we’ve released an exciting new update to Read&Write for Windows version 11.5. This update provides even more ways for Windows users to access Read&Write – including in the new Windows 10 operating system, the Windows Edge browser, Office 365 in Edge, and on high resolution devices and tablets.

One of the main priorities of schools today is keeping students safe. Teachers and administrators know how to protect a student’s physical presence and keep them safe in the classroom, but protecting a student’s online, digital presence may be something they’re still trying to figure out. Luckily, this is a challenge that many educational technology providers, including us here at Texthelp, have already risen to.
